Why iodine is specific dye to detect starch?
The reaction of the starch changing colour is the result of the formation of polyiodide chains from the reaction of starch and iodine. The amylose, or straight chain portion of starch, forms helices where iodine molecules assemble, forming a dark purple/black color.
